Pretty much all we have in common.
Well we both like to fish also.
He would bring beer to me after I told him I quit. He still brings extra beers with him when he visits. I am sure he is hoping I have started again and will join him.
He still romanticizes alcohol in our conversations.
He can drink 3 beers and go about his business. I cannot.
I limit our time together as much as I can. Not because I am afraid I will drink but because his attitude towards my decision to quit pisses me off.
I do consider him to be a friend, even though I think friends support each other, but he is not and will never be a good friend because of this.
